View with Page display won't show menu tab for an alias

Question

I want to add a few views (members and challenges) to a specific content type called group. I don't want the views to display all on the same page, this is easily done with the block display type. But I want to have menu tabs at the page, this is also easily done (/node/%/members) if you only use one content type. But I'm using multiple content types what than also will have the Members tab.

Basically I'm asking how to manage the visibility of a menu tab.

This is what I tried so far for the view Group Members (User):

Path: /group/%/members
Menu: Tab: Members

nothing showed up..

This is what I tried so far for the view Group specific Challenges (Content):

Path: /node/%/challenges
Menu: Tab: Challenges

It showed up on every node.

Answer 1

Create your views as follows:

Challenges -

path: node/%/challenges

tab: menu tab with title Challenges

filter criteria: type = group

Contextual filter: nid, and in section WHEN THE FILTER VALUE IS IN THE URL OR A DEFAULT IS PROVIDED specify validation criteria: Validator Content, Content types group

Members-

path: node/%/members

tab: menu tab with title Members

filter criteria: you con't need any as you are displaying users (you have a view of users)

relationship: add a relationship to the node table such as: User: Content authored. This will bring in the related nodes.

Contextual filter: nid, in the section rlationships nodes must be selected. Specify validation criteria as Validator Content, Content types group

And these two tabs will now show up only for node type group. If you need it on other content types as well then adjust your views filter criteria and contextual filter validation as required.
